Tanya Jacob, PhD

Clinical Psychologist

Sometimes, our thoughts can become so frightening that we feel trapped inside our own minds. With over two decades of clinical experience, I’m here to help you find comfort within yourself. I rarely recommend medication, and help people taper from existing prescriptions when appropriate. I blend techniques such as CBT (cognitive behavioral therapies), DBT, EMDR, psychodynamic theory, existential therapy, and guided imagery. Due to the complexity of human experience, I adapt my therapeutic approach based on the individual needs and goals of every client.

In this politically divisive time, it can feel unsafe to be authentic with a stranger. I’m happy to answer any questions about my own views, but otherwise keep sessions about you. I don’t judge or discriminate based on lifestyle, belief, or values. Therapy is your private sanctuary.

I believe that humor can be a valuable part of the therapeutic relationship. I see clients of all ages, particularly adults and adolescents. I offer one-on-one, couples, and family sessions. I also provide interventions and crisis meetings.
